Newmarket Posted Thursday at 09:07 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:07 PM I see he again has his pride and joy Perfect Posy out today, he part owns, rides and trains. Without being too rude here, I ask what is he thinking. It’s had 37 starts and yet to salute, I get that he loves the game but surely with so much success as a rider early on, must have some coin to invest in better stock? Not here to offend him, just wondering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chief Stipe Posted Thursday at 09:13 PM Share Posted Thursday at 09:13 PM I suggest you don't back it. Still won $28k in stakes. Let's face it without its entry the odds of NTD would be increased. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just mainly interested in his story recently, is this the only one he trains, if so is there a story behind it? I suppose it’s just me thinking how great he was as a jockey then did great things in Aus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billy connolly Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM Share Posted yesterday at 12:18 AM Another conviction. Hard to believe that a jockey who won a Melbourne Cup and was once Moroney's stable rider would keep this slow bastard going, especially so when he owns half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murray Fish Posted yesterday at 01:12 AM Share Posted yesterday at 01:12 AM When I last spoke to TK, its all around having a bit of fun and keeping his fitness up! As long as the bills are being paid does it really matter? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy connolly Posted yesterday at 02:19 AM Share Posted yesterday at 02:19 AM When I last spoke to TK he was contemplating sending it to that woman trainer from Riccarton, she knows all about training slow bastards ! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is also involved with running a mid size business! v TK, who doesn't come from a racing family, and he has a serious 'love' for the horse! Back in the Laxon days Laurie had a serious appreciation of TK 'horseman skills'. If he wanted he could walking into any of the big stables in AU as a track rider! A simple pleasant fellow! Wouldn't surprise me to see him find a nice horse one day! Doing it all on the cheap as well! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wingman Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Lance's training performance has gone to another level since his brother returned from HK. Tony hasn't had the same privilege and deals with horses whose pedigrees would pale into total insignificance compared to the thoroughbreds that enter Wexford. As for the negative tosser on the white horse, take a leaf out of Newmarket's book and next time ask 'Why?' instead of being abusive 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would also be a while since you bowled a maiden over. Do you still roll out for that old people's game? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
